Have you ever seen the "Alone in the Wilderness" series? I was hearing Dick Proenneke's voice for your narration;)

Sorry for the thread steal, I've been thinking about going there I'm diving drysuit only now. Would a Whites Fusion with thin clothing work?

All of it. Everything... nevermind just buy the store:D

Hi Nina, I tried to read all the posts, I didn't see it mentioned that if you go the weight bet route, put it on when you try your BC in the store and make sure the your release isn't blocked incase you need to pull it in a hurry. In the days of weight belts things were designed differently, now...

I had this discussion with my instructor, cause I don't log. He said if I really need it, buy a new book and start at 100 or 150 or something. Whatever the standard number of pages are and where you think you are

It's not being distracted , cause when I turned my head up to look to see if there was a spinning prop, all sound disappeared, as the water rushed into my ear. I tried to put air into my hood to displace the water in my ear but it didn't work very well. you can really hear the sound die out as...

Hi, I can't hear well at all once I descend. I've had buddies wondering about beeping computers, and I've surfaced within 100ft of moving boats and can't hear a thing, so I'm wondering do those vented ear plugs help a person hear underwater? One boat went overhead the other day, when I turned...

About that too much alcohol point, its not that I can't clear my ears, but it feels like someone stabbed me in the forehead and proceeded to push the knife behind the eye and out the nostril. :(

Yeah exactly:) Don't drink to much alcohol the night before either. You'll feel it push away from your face and become more comfortable

About the blood, I had it at first, because I wasn't equalizing my mask when I did my ears. The mask pushes against your nose. I equalize both, every couple feet, instead of waiting until I can feel the pressure. Just do the same thing as if you were trying to clear water from your mask to...

When I first heard about this, I did a bit of research and found that the actual UV lights burn some of the sea life cause UV is nonexistent down there, whereas the blue light and filter won't. Like sunburn I guess

I think it all depends where you are. Bigger places will be more by the book. I don`t try to haggle for gear prices, and one day I got offered a weekend of boat diving for 40 bucks. My preferred shop, the owner started teaching me how to fill tanks and how the compressor works just cause I...

My parents go crabbing there quite a bit. Watch out for boat traffic. In a backroads map book it shows that there is a wreck near the entrance on the inside. Vis may be pretty low. If you bring a six pack to the campsite on the river I bet you could get a boat dive pretty easily:)

Its a water troll:viking2:

Mind if I join you? Otherwise, I'm gonna go regardless if anyone wants to come:D

That was a crab that caught my attention, I think I was getting hungry lol

]Since SBer's are the absolute in crowd I know there must be a lot of Selfies out there. So I'll start with this frightening image... here's one...my first time trying sidemount, maybe 15ft https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKc2wnyj01E

Lol:d

Like the other guy said, if you see him approach you, pull your knife out and stab at ;) the threat to your well being
